My apologies for a late response, but I have a small request on the 
media type registration form.

The following field:

"Applications that use this media type:" currently contains N/A. This 
doesn't look right, as this field can be used by implementors to decide 
whether they need to bother implementing a particular media type.

So please treat this field as if it says "Applications that could use 
this media type" and add some example application that would benefit 
from using it. You have some text in the Introduction section of the 
draft that can be expanded and adapted here.

Thank you,

Alexey
